Jogging stroller recs
I was not sure where best to post this. We will be in need of a jogging type stroller. I do not run or jog , but we are outdoors alot on grass, gravel, etc so we know we need the larger wheels. Any recs? Oh! We are both tall so it has to work for tall people.

Re: Jogging stroller recs
I have a Jeep one I got used for $30. It has a huge basket underneath, which is great for big families.

Re: Jogging stroller recs
I got a 300 one for 99 on prime day last year. Very pleased with it. Will come back with brand.

Re: Jogging stroller recs
I have a Baby Trend, which is a cheap brand. I bought it used from a friend. It's been just fine. I do some running, but not a lot, and I use it on trails. It's just fine. Prime Day is coming up if you have Prime. Unless you get a deal, I wouldn't spend a lot of money. I have a friend who runs a whole lot and she can justify an expensive jog stroller where the handle is the perfect height for her, etc. But, for me, I've never wished I'd spent more.

Re: Jogging stroller recs
My recommendation is to not buy new, let someone else pay full price and get one on Craigslist or at a yard sale. I bought my first one on Craigslist and not thinking we'd have anymore children, I sold it. Got my next one at a friend's yard sale and used it for 11 years!
Your are so right to get those air tires! I don't jog either but a jogging stroller is SO much nicer to push on a neighborhood walk or walk on a hiking trail. A friend of mine has a BOB jogging stroller and loves it. She got it on Craigslist, that brand is very expensive!

Schwinn is what we have
No need for BOB here

Re: Jogging stroller recs
City Elite by Baby Jogger is a good one! Can't believe it took us until 6 children to get one of these!
